Abstract
This article describes the concept of Fast and Intertwined Lanes (FAIR) lanes in which freeway lanes would be separated using plastic pylons and striping into two sections: Fast lanes and Regular lanes. The Fast lanes would be electronically tolled express lanes while the Regular lanes would be free lanes, with probable delays, but with drivers being compensated with credits. The article studies the travel impacts, financial feasibility and economic efficiency of this concept.
